Review "This book on pediatric emergency medicine is geared toward helping physicians manage their patients in real time. Each chapter begins by outlining key points, then proceeds to an introduction of the topic, basic approach and diagnosis, and a discussion of management issues. The chapters are liberally complemented by pictures, charts, and tables in order to help guide diagnosis and management. It is written for all healthcare professionals taking care of pediatric patients in an emergency care setting. The comprehensive review is a good tool to have as a reference for both residents and attending in an emergency department or urgent care setting." - Doody's 4 Stars "This textbook is an excellent resource to add to any emergency department setting. It is reader friendly, serving both as a quick reference and as a substantive educational resource." - JAMA, February 2009 "This textbook is a refreshing update to the existing pediatric emergency medicine literature. With over 200 contributors, the editors of this text have provided a comprehensive review of problems facing pediatric emergency and urgent care providers. Perhaps the book's greatest strength is its color graphics which elevate this text to a level above similar publications. I found this text to be extremely well organized and inclusive of all problems relevant to emergency pediatric care. This text will be a great addition to any ED or urgent care clinic library."Annals of Emergency Medicine, July 2009
